Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Kirpianuscus it could be better. it is the first conclusion after its end. in fact, the verdict is not correct. because it has the virtue to be a honest adaptation of a real case, warning about relations on social sites, portrait of a man under the pressure of real life, free in virtual space , killer and , at first sigh, admirable student. a film who presents without impose the verdict. proposing image of a killer , sketches for his victims, the impact for family and media, the last days and the final decision. the manner - same with a television film. the absence of explicit scenes, the superficial presentation of details are far to represent errors. the essence of case is important. and the way to preserve two life styles has a good illustration. so, a decent thriller.

phd_travel A well made true life murder movie tragedy. This Lifetime movie about the Craigslist killer is well cast and well acted with a likable cast. The screenplay is well written and shows what you want to see. The story is so interesting that the movie is fascinating to watch.Jake McDorman looks suitably wholesome as the medical student with a dark side who had a promising future. The escalation of his obsession is frightening to watch. Agnes Bruckner is quite good as the girlfriend who had no idea she was living with a killer.The needless self destruction and insane obsession that led to killing is quite tragic.Worth a watch.

wsills8 OK, so when I went to buy one of my favorite films from Blockbuster, I found out that it was one of those Buy One, Get One Free deals. The only other movie, which had at least a dozen copies left, was a Lifetime original movie entitled The Craigslist Killer. At first, I had no intent of actually watching it, but will nothing to do, I watched it. To start off, it is much better than I thought and probably one the best if not the best Lifetime film ever (remember, it's Lifetime and the movies are cheesy and bad). About the first 20 to 30 minuets of the movie are all about showing how Phillip Markoff (Jake McDorman)and Megan McAllister (Agnes Bruckner) met and fell in love. Then, the film takes off. Bruckner and William Baldwin who plays Detective Bennett provide very believing roles, but McDorman's is mediocre. None the less, the film becomes very intriguing with Markoff living a double life as a good boy doctor and a criminal. Then the last ten minuets happen. In real life, Markoff didn't actually love McAllister but used her as cover. In the movie, obviously a Lifetime trademark, they make it this corny, mushy movie in which Markoff takes his own life and writes his so-called love's name on the wall. The music is terrible, the acting is decent, the story is very interesting, and the romance is horrible. Could be a 7 or 6 without the end, but a 5/10 which is none the less watchable. If it's on TV and you have nothing to do, you should watch it.

sz_chica11 Jake Mcdorman, besides being ridiculously attractive that he is unlike the real bad guy, did a decent job portraying the role of Philip Markoff in this movie by hiding his psychotic other personality from others for a significant amount of time. It was a role that he definitely knew how to act out without trying too hard which made it an overall good movie besides being easy on the eye. His TV wife however, was a bad actress, and honestly didn't have much charisma for the role. Perhaps a more well established actress could have been considered, who knows? He isn't a big actor either, but does a thorough job. I had a hunch that a movie like this would come out onto Lifetime just because Lacy Peterson and Natalie Holloway were also made into movies and were broadcasting on Lifetime. No big shocker there. Still this was a sexy thriller that i definitely enjoyed even though i normally don't watch Lifetime.
